\r\n Anybody got any good ideas for cleaning up drywall dust? I`m currently having all the seams in my garage finally finished so I can paint and need to figure out the best way to get all the dust cleaned up.\r\n\r\n

The best way I have found is to use a good canister vacuum with a NEW bag in it. The dust will clog the bag fairly quickly, so have a good supply of bags on hand and change it frequently.\r\n
\n
\nOh, and put the brush with the bristles on it to help pull the dust loose.\r\n

Depending on the size of the area, damp mop or damp towels keeps from stirring up the dust.\r\n\r\n

If not vacuum up what you can and change the bag frequently as the fine dust plugs the filter bags. Also get some yellow treated dust closts from a Jan/San house and use those to get the remainder.\r\n
\n
\nIf you cant find the yellow treated cloths get a bucket of water and a MF cloth (cheap is OK for this) and wet wipe and rinse and wring out, repeat.
\n
\nGood Luck.
\n
\nToss MF when done.

\nI ripped and re-rocked my whole downstairs and garage after the hurricane. I am now a pro at cleaning dry wall dust.

Get lots of plastic sheets to cover everything. 3.5mil sheets are fine, they`re cheap protection. The 2mil sheets may be too flimsy but a lot cheaper. If you can hang plastic sheets from the ceiling down to floor to section off areas being sanded, that`ll keep the most of the dust confined to a smaller area, and so easier to vacuum.\r\n\r\n
